How to Love a Child And Other Selected Works

How to Love a Child and Other Selected Works is the first comprehensive collection of Korczak’s works translated into English. Volume 1 comprises three pedagogical works, the first being How to Love a Child. This is a tetralogy presenting the life of a child in a family from birth to puberty. The second work, The Events of Childrearing, is based on observations of children made in kindergarten and at school. The third, A Child’s Right to Respect, is an ardent manifesto for children’s rights such as the right to be what they actually are.

Janusz Korczak, the pen name of Henryk Goldszmit (1878 or 1879–1942), was a pediatrician known as Pan Doktor (Mr. Doctor) or Stary Doktor (Old Doctor). He introduced progressive orphanages, serving both Jewish and Polish children in Warsaw. He is the author of over 20 books including How to Love a Child, The Rules of Life, King Matt the First, and Kaytek the Wizard.
